Gonzaga and Big Foot. The pair of them have taken enough trauma to qualify for being in a nursing home, so now they are going to bash each other about another bit just to make sure. I'm betting on Gonzaga being the less shot of the pair though.

Silva has 10 (ten!!!!!!) KO's on his MMA record alone. 4 of which were in his last 5 fights. This doesn't even include the brutal KO against Verhoeven in Glory a couple of years ago. So that's just pro fights. God knows how much damage he took in the gym not to mention the 5 rounder against Mark Hunt.

What I am saying is, surely Bigfoot is literally the first name on every fight fans mind when you think about CTE.

I cant get behind this Bare Knuckle stuff. It would be brutal enough if it was guys in their prime who haven't taken a lot of damage but there's an added level of bleak grimness when its aging fighters who cant cut it in actual pro boxing, kickboxing or MMA anymore.

It's a shame that there's evidently not a lot of money in grappling tournaments or superfights. Both of these guys are skilled grapplers and they could easily do a submission wrestling match with way, way less risk of someone taking permanent damage.
